Wonderland
What a gem!
Heading south we checked out the two DOC sites (Pleasant and Cameron) but the sand flies were bad so we decided to try our luck. So glad we did! Wonderland was only $25 for an unpowered site (2 of us) and we would have paid $20 at the DOC sites. This place has an incredible big rustic lodge to cook and hang out in. Free showers, wifi, and clean toilets. The mountains surrounding the area are gorgeous. Wished we were staying another night!

Earl Adams Paradise Camp
Much like others have said, Earl is a gem!!!
His hospitality goes above and beyond. He shared fresh fish with us (which we grilled up for dinner) and invited us into his home the following morning to watch the rugby (the all blacks were playing in the World Cup). As for the camping, what beautiful views!!! Basic facilities (porta potty) with sinks and good water. Also an outdoor free hot shower. Earl, and the view, makes this place a must!
